Introduction to the Application and Deadline Information Checklist for Successful Enrollment Instructions to Complete the Application Program and Admissions Requirements Chart Application for Admission Application Fee Payment Form WHO SHOULD USE THIS APPLICATION? This application is for NEW degree-seeking students who plan to obtain a college degree here at NCC and/or elsewhere. Students who apply with this application are accepted as matriculated students. There are two categories of NEW degree-students: Freshman never attended college as a degree (matriculated) student before. (Freshmen may have completed college credit while in high school.) Transfer attended one or more colleges and/or post-secondary schools, regardless of courses/credits completed and status as degree or non-degree. Other the 24-credit High School Equivalency (HSE) program (formerly known as the GED). Students without an official high school diploma may earn a high school equivalency (HSE) diploma through the completion of 24 defined college credits.

Upon completion of the program, students are granted the HSE by the New York State Education Department and may continue their education as degree (matriculated) students, using the 24 completed credits as the foundation for most programs of study. Interested students are required to attend an information session prior to the application process. Contact Admissions@ncc.edu. ADMISSION TO NASSAU COMMUNITY COLLEGE All applicants who can demonstrate that they have (or will have) a recognized high school diploma are eligible for matriculated admission to Nassau Community College. Your choice of program is a key factor in determining your admission status. Study the PROGRAMS AND ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS chart carefully to learn about requirements. Some programs of study have specific criteria, including completion, with designated grades of certain courses in high school and/or college, that must be met prior to admission. In cases where pre-requisites are not met, new students are accepted into alternate programs at NCC, to give them the time and opportunity to complete requirements. Note: There is no guarantee of admission to the competitive programs (such as Nursing and Allied Health) for students who start in an alternate program. However, courses taken usually represent liberal arts and sciences that are the foundation for most programs at NCC and elsewhere. Academic advisors are available to provide guidance on alternate academic opportunities. PLANNING YOUR COLLEGE STUDIES Whatever your academic interest, career goal, or timetable, Nassau Community College is a great place to start. In addition to the many day and evening class offerings, do learn more about Weekend College at NCC : Busy students can take classes on Friday evenings and during daytime hours on Saturdays and Sundays.

Distance Education courses are comparable to those taught in a face-to-face environment at NCC. They are taught by NCC instructors, carry the same number of credits, can be applied to degree or elective requirements and are accepted for transfer. Visit distance.ed@ncc.edu or call to learn more. Do NOT use this application if you are in one of the following categories: A returning NCC student who now seeks re-admission after leaving NCC A non-degree student who wishes to take courses for personal enrichment or professional growth An international student seeking an F-1 visa A visiting student (matriculated at another college but wanting to take classes at Nassau) You may locate the appropriate application for admission at Note: Non-degree students are not eligible for state or federal financial aid and may be restricted from taking certain classes.
